Unless I'm way off I think that gives me room to start plotting.

Okay, things I would like to play that would probably fit in this game.
- Harrowed (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=188148)(already approved): Ranged damage plus bunch of random stuff since I don't want to go the natural attack route
- Sublime Knight (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=10641041&postcount=10): Melee damage/tank (I'd like to see how the class plays out)
- Gamber (http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?topic=7185.0): Melee damage, looks like fun
That's all I've got for starting at level one. Brujon, let me know if you approve/disapprove of any of them.
@brujon: As far as I can tell the Gambler doesn't have any dice manipulation, that was Nord's Blade. Give it another look and feel free to point out if I'm wrong. Also I could be an Evil Sublime Knight. :p
@sirpercival: I actually forgot that one. I'll add it to consideration...
The Shire is similar to... uh... the various 'shires. Like Cambridgeshire. The highlands are completely different. One's basically farmland and low hills. The other's mountains. Mountains and heather.
*Note: lives in one, has sort of seen the latter. Is probably going to be living in Scotland by the end of the year, but not the highlands. :p
Also, I am worried I may have made a terrible mistake. D:

IDK, i saw various images of the scottish highlands, and it pretty much is exactly like Tolkien describes The Shire. Hell, i can half see hobbit holes in the images... Might be just me though.

- Dread Champion (http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?topic=9437): Melee damage/debuffer
I decided against the Harrowed, I feel like playing a frontliner. Is Drad Champion okayed?
On a related note, can we have Dynamic Priest apply to save DCs as well as bonus spells, or at least write another feat that changes DCs over?
Picture a Halfling.
Now picture it wielding a Greatsword bigger than he is and proclaiming:
"There can be only one"
Frodo McLeod.
Since it seems to have been passed over, I'll ask again:On a related note, can we have Dynamic Priest apply to save DCs as well as bonus spells, or at least write another feat that changes DCs over?
I'm still doing a Naseli, y'know. I have a bow. It's just that the arrows I shoot appear to be able to deliver the blast effects at the other end. Or essences, though I DO wish that there were more than, uh... four or five of them.
The main problem would just be that the first useful Blast Shape (Chain) isn't available until level 9, since I don't get Lesser invocations until 6th but I get two blast shapes at 5th with the ACF. :lmao
Actually, has anyone homebrewed up more Blast Essences at any point? :O

Anyway, are using Holomancer Essences a go (there's not much difference except names. That, and the Positive Energy one is awesome. Shoot people with arrows to heal them, much?)
Hm. If I shoot someone with an arrow, intentionally setting them on fire as per Burn Reality, do I roll 1d4 then 1d6 for the Essence effect, or does that happen the turn after?
Also, how much money/wealth do I start with? There's nothing listed on the class ... @_@
... my equipment is light armour, a bow, and arrows. If I'm in melee I'm very screwed and my only option is to poke everyone and hope they burn to death. What do I do with the rest? :P
What about elementals?... my equipment is light armour, a bow, and arrows. If I'm in melee I'm very screwed and my only option is to poke everyone and hope they burn to death. What do I do with the rest? :P
Dungeonscape is always a nice mundane money sink.
Also, Shax indispensable haversack has many useful alchemical and mechanical goodies. http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=148101
btw, no Aboleth Mucus or Dust of Sneezing and Choking, lol. Also, in the interest of reasonability, since as far as you and everyone else in the campaign world knows there are no other planes or interplanar travel, items linked to extraplanar creatures are not available. If a creature is a native Outsider, then it doesn't exist in the campaign world, and neither does items that depend upon it (fiendish grafts would be an example).
despite being a disciple of Dispater?
or maybe homebrew something?

Leather armour, bow, 20 arrows. Can't carry any more without basically shooting myself in the foot because I do not want to be slowed down and stuck in melee range, but only spent 42 GP. 342 if I make the bow masterwork. :|

Best find something light, seeing as how coins have weight too :p
Mules are cheap, but my concern here is kinda simple: once armed, carrying anything more is bad news for combat (due to iron vulnerability), so whilst I'd own a lot of junk, I wouldn't be able to use it. >.<
I remember somebody talked about the stat reroll rules but I can't remember what they are..
+3 or lower, that's what I was looking for.
1st set (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4146049/)- total modifier +2
2nd set (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4146078/) - too good for a reroll
My stats are: 9, 12, 13, 16, 16, 10
Can I keep the smoking shuriken? It only gives me a smoky, burnt aura. Which is kind of appropriate for coming straight from the depths of Hell
EDIT: Goes to show that reroll 1's and only keep rolls with total modifiers of +3 or higher is good enough to get some good rolls! (Minimum you could get by this rule, is 20pb equivalent, rolling all 10's and 1 16. I think.)
FireInTheSky: Wow, that's impressive. Leave the Coastal cities, and, the rest can go! A topographic map is awesome, will definitely help with defining landscape in the region and such. Other cities you end up visiting will be named as we go there...
Really, i'm awed ;O You're a geographer by any chance?

Children of randomness and entropy, cansin are the most often descended from the inhabitants of Limbo, the plane of chaos. Cansin generally appear disheveled and disorganized. their clothing is mismatched, their hair is mussed, and their caps perch at odd angles. cansin typically have at least one, but possibly several, minor physical traits that reflect their origins. some have eyes that randomly change color (not necessarilty in sync), others have slightly irregular features, and still others carry around an aura of randomness that causes strange things to happen in the cansin's presence. this aura does not affect dice rolls in any way, of course, but it can affect insignificant events, such as chance meetings, minor accidents, and strange but harmless occurances. naturally, most cansin are chaotic, but their very unpredicability makes neutral and even lawful cansin more common than good tieflings, evil aasimar, or chaotic axani.

Seriously, Dungeonscape is your friend. There's ALL kinds of useful stuff for any adventurer there. Other suggestions include a Winch Crossbow (Arms & Equipment Guide, 3.0), a Grappling Crossbow (Dungeonscape IIRC), various masterwork tools, a veritable host of poisons, alchemical items, mundane items... Greater Alchemist's Fire for you, would be seriously insanely awesome. As well as a Sprayer, so you can turn Oil into a 5' cone, then light it up.
I don't know if there's a lightweight storage solution under 1000gp, but it's possible that there is, and i just don't remember.

Fact that item choices make me panic aside and that short-ranged stuff is not good when even a dagger deals an average of 7 damage before modifiers to me: what possible use would greater alchemist's fire be? All fire I light deals 1d6 damage automatically. :huh

What is the "normal cost"? 50gp x Spell Level (for copying it from another's spellbook) + 100gp per page (for writing it in my own), or the price of a scroll + 100gp per page, or the cost for researching the spell (1000gp/spell level), or the price of just buying a whole spellbook from someone else (100gp per page of spells), or something else?
And does the double cost only apply to spells not cast-able by a Cleric of the One True God, or to all spells?
At level 5 I would gain +5 feet of reach when wielding a two-handed non-reach weapon. I'll just go ahead with spiked chain now and if/when we hit level 5 I'll see what happens.
Honestly once level 5 rolls around I'll probably end up carrying a bunch of different weapons, one thing I like about low magic campaigns is it makes that kind of character viable.

IMO, spiked chain is actually really fitting for Dread Champion... I imagine a guy, wielding a heavy spiked chain, wearing all black armor - turned red from the blood of his enemies - spinning the blade maniacally and shouting "WEAKLINGS! Come forth to the Slaughterhouse, i have not yet sated my bloodthirst!"
Like a Blend-Tec blender, SAW version.
I hate odd numbers.
... you get a penalty on AoO's but you take a penalty if you move out of melee combat anyway so you won't provoke that many AoO's? :p
Alright so I get 7 free first level cleric spells. I can add new 1st level cleric spells to my spellbook at the rate of 125gp each, or 150 for non-cleric divine spells. I probably shouldn't spend more than half my starting wealth on spells, so I can reserve the rest for weapons/armor/other mundane equipment.
Things I'm thinking of buying:
Entangle (Plant Domain)
Sleep (Dream Domain)
Charm Person (Charm Domain)
Silent Image (Illusion Domain)

Ray of Enfeeblement (Necromancer Domain)
Things I'm thinking of taking for free:

Obscuring Mist
Protection from Good
Shield of Faith
Divine Favor
Resurgence
I notice that I'm missing a Fort save or suck, and I don't have as many buffing options as I'd like. Any suggestions?
We should make sure that our abilities aren't overlapping. Especially since I was considering focusing on buffing/bfc. The three Forgings I'm planning on taking are Aetherbeast (basically Astral Construct), Aetherfire Aura (target gains +xd4 Force damage to all attacks), and Aether Reinforcement (similar to Magic Vestment). So... so far I really only have buffing, and no BFC. Maybe go in that direction instead? I think we're okay for the moment, but we'll have to be careful when leveling.

Most of the spells I'm looking at are BFC or save or lose, so I think we're ok. As we level, the majority of my spells will be limited by the NPCs we meet and the scrolls we happen to find, so I'm not sure we need to worry about overlapping too much :)

True dat. And I can definitely narrow my focus to not really worry about BFC. In any case, I'm sure we'll discuss it more when the time comes to level up.
Brujon, how do you feel about Forging Beads (http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?topic=7141.msg109899#msg109899) (basically one-use Aetherforge items)? (Also a potential source of treasure ;);))

I don't really think Martial Study is particularly useful on level 1, though, is it? IL = 1/2, which isn't enough to take anything. Or am I missing something? As for Shape Soulmeld... err... I will be entirely honest in that I cannot work out which of the damn things are useful. -_-'Oh... hm. I never realized that before.
Familiar requires arcane caster level 3 (and I don't know if Naseli actually counts for that), Shape Soulmeld is already out, I don't think I stand a chance of getting an Animal Companion at level one, and Psicrystal Affinity requires a manifester level. Which I don't have. :/Wild Cohort (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/re/20031118a)?
Hm.
Well, given my insufficient Con to access Soulmelds, and a lack of desire for an animal companion (I'm going to be completely honest: a glorified farmyard animal doesn't appeal to me, so I can't imagine taking it when starting at level 1), back to my original question: would Burn Reality benefit from the +1 to DC's? How about setting the save DC for setting stuff on fire? Burn Reality functions like Warlock Invocations for prerequisites, but I don't know if it would be affected by it.
Oh, and would it work for Enchantment SLA's? The other two feats in the line give some of them.
End of this. (http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?topic=10801.msg180383#msg180383) Ranger should be ranged, don't know how that R got in there.
Huzzah! That deals with my feat problem and gives me a bit more resistance to weaponry due to DR (basically, DR 3/Cold Iron--with the DR applying separately to Iron Vulnerability, it seems, so long as DR isn't pierced). Now I just need to look at Dungeonscape. :lmao
Pity Ride and Handle Animal are cross-class, or I'd get a horse instead of a mule. They cost more, though.

Magic-blooded is a pretty tame template, but other than that I'd probably go Desert Half-Orc to allow access to that +4 Intimidate racial feat.I'm also having issues coming up with feats, which means I'm also not sure what race to take.Magic-blooded Neanderthal?

Template stacking seemed a little higher op. than I thought brujon was going for. Str, Con, and Cha are my three main stats though...

Desert half-orcs get run as a bonus feat. (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/races/environmentalRacialVariants.htm#desertHalfOrcs)
I could go Desert Half-Orc and take Power Attack, Skill Focus (Intimidate) and then that half-orc feat that gives a +4 to gain a +7 to my intimidate checks and be the most intimidating person ever. :p
According to the A&E Guide, a rhinoceros trained for war as a mount costs... 250GP.
Can I have one? :D
brujon, what is your verdict on the magic blooded template? I obviously only want it for the stat adjustments, I don't care about any of the other stuff it gives.
Natural Alpha [General, Faction-Dependent]
Your physical strength combined with your self-confidence lends weight to your words, and it is clear
to all Sellswords that you were born to lead.
Prerequisite: Membership in the Sodkillers. Str 13, Cha 13.
Benefit: You add your Strength modifier to Intimidate checks along with your Charisma modifier. In
addition, you may add your Strength modifier to Diplomacy checks targeting other members of the
Sodkillers, along with your Charisma modifier as usual.
According to the A&E Guide, a rhinoceros trained for war as a mount costs... 250GP.:lol Mules are dirt cheap, and quite capable in combat compared to 1st level PCs/NPCs. You could afford a whole herd of them, all trained to respond to the same commands (CHARGE!). They also won't draw angry mobs nearly as readily. :p

How much "disguise" does full plate + helmet provide for an orc or half-orc?
Trying to think of something else CHA-based, I guess. That is not sorcerer. :lmao
We're... I dunno, 500 years too early for a pirate? :p
How do you do a pirate bard, anyway?
I have remembered one of the most alarming Charisma-based schools ever. (http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?topic=7625.0) Cutting into your HP to just not die? Fun.

Where is the style in using a wave of mules, though? :p
The AEG also has llamas, but I can't have one of them (and I'd probably pretend it's an alpaca, anyway. They're so fluffy looking!)
Cha to Damage, Saves and AC isn't actually too bad, and nothing you can't get with some feats and dipping. I wouldn't bat my eye at allowing a class if it was just because of that. But, immortality at such a low level, even if the price is high, is pretty insane, really.
You also have that Counter you use when you would die, so you don't even need to stay on that Stance forever. And you pop back up at Diplomacy + Cha Mod HP. So, at least Level +3 plus Cha Mod, which is at least another +3. Not terribly overpowered, but a BIG life-saver. You won't really CARE for the max HP until you're out of the woods, and nothing prevents you from using that counter however many times you need to in order to defeat the encounter... So yeah, it's pretty powerful!

I wish I could think of something CHA-based and druid-like aside from the nymph that Oslecamo wrote. Hmm...What do you want out of the druid? Spirit Shaman is cha-based, isn't it?
Brujon, are there any non-humans among the Order of the Contemplative Mind? More specifically, are there non-human psionicists in the ranks?
Brujon, are there any non-humans among the Order of the Contemplative Mind? More specifically, are there non-human psionicists in the ranks?
Yes. Generally children of all races, including mixed breeds, are welcome in the ranks. They try to keep as many psionically gifted children amongst their ranks as they can. They are also VERY strict about this. Parents who don't accept must either submit their children to the "Purge" (Lobotomy), which generally causes unwanted side effects, or get themselves hanged alongside their child. So most parents comply. Also, it can be rather DIFFICULT, to raise a Child that can levitate stuff, and generally cause a mess. Actually, most parents are grateful, because those childs are a handful.
Of course that means children inside the kingdom of Astaria. There are psionically gifted races out there, and many orders that are pretty secretive about it, too. There's even talk of an Insectoid race that is especially gifted with Psionics, but come from the far east. The Church is always too happy to dismiss such rumours, though - Such monstrous races are usually thought of as the spawn of the Devil.
Well, it appears everyone is mostly ready...
SorO still needs to choose powers, distribute skills and buy equipment.
Raineh hasn't decided on a final build yet.
Nanshork also hasn't set it in stone
Linklord too, is still building.
Zook appears to be done, as does SirP and FireInTheSky (Mostly).
So, how much longer do you guys think you need for us to start this game?
You think until monday is a good time?

What classes have we got so far? I've... kind of forgotten. -_-'
Lesser-Unseelie-Fey Magic-Blooded Lesser-Cansin
Absolutely sure. Everything I could possibly have been any use for is already covered anyway, and I don't have any interest in being in a game containing an StP Erudite with that sort of CHA and incomprehensible family tree. So, no point.
@same but different characters... thats very true
but i have a feeling he wants to play something that feels different than what everyone else is playing.
The best part? Since most roles are already covered, you can play that "whatever thing" you always wanted to play, but never had the chance because you needed to cover for a role.
You know what we don't have, for instance? A Summoner. Sure, Erudite and Archivist can summon, but they're not dedicated summoners. Also, they can buff, but they're not dedicated buffers. And, with 7 people on a team, AoE buffing with Bard gets crazy good. Combine summoning with Bard, and ding ding, we have a winner :)
Just some ideas tossed around.
Raineh, is there anything specific that you're wanting your character to do?
SorO still needs to choose powers, distribute skills and buy equipment.My equipment is still a mess >.<
You're still down a skill, if it's 2+Int. Int modifier is 3, you've got four listed (including Bluff).
Also, the hell would masterwork tools for concentration and bluff be that you could carry them around at all times? Those aren't magical items. :huh
Eos is good at sneaking... is he useless? :(Raineh, is there anything specific that you're wanting your character to do?
If I knew, there wouldn't be such a problem. :|
I know that minions and sneak skills are right out: one because I would mess it up and the other because... well, it's boring, and only one person good at sneaking sounds as much use as a chocolate teapot.

I must admit being confused by one thing about it: it looks like the table for Enhanced Armaments in the section on it doesn't match up with the actual class tables. And the class tables don't match up with one of the Champion class features, because that requires having one of the effects to enhance and I have no idea how to make sense of this. >.<

And as for Masterwork Tools. It's published material that leaves it open to how you want to interpret it. I've always pictured the Concentration Tool to be a symbol. Like ever watch Naruto? The Perverted Sage draws a symbol on Naruto's palm to help him focus spinning his Chakra in his hand. At 50gp that mark better have not been made using a sharpie imho. For Knowledge Checks, including Psy/Spell-Craft I think it's a clue card or mini-flip book containing notes and quick reminders. And the Masterwork Tool for Bluff is a wedding ring. No, really. It's a subtle sign of willing to take a vow before his god and you know at least someone out there thinks the guy is worth hanging out with. Well, maybe not so much in this day and age but in the 1100s...

Marksman is fine whether its range is cut down or not, as far as I'm concerned. That's not the reason I'll be using it. :lmao
Hm, anyway, feats!
Mortal Miracle, Practiced Evoker, Practiced Evoker. Even if I don't get the full benefit of those two until level 4, it lets me focus on taking Twinned Device at level 3 when it actually starts to be practical to use.
I remember seeing a huge list of flaws posted a while back, anyone got the link? @_@
Many Prestige classes progress the illuminations of the character taking them. When a class gains a level in an illumination-using class, they advance their Evoker Level, Illuminations Known, Illuminations Readied, Innate Illuminations, and Personas Known. They do not advance any other features of their previous class, such as Cartridges, Complex Formula, or Costume Elements.
This one is especially fitting. (http://realmshelps.net/cgi-bin/featbox.pl?feat=Code_of_Arms) Probably not quite as thematic, but interesting. (http://realmshelps.net/cgi-bin/featbox.pl?feat=Love_of_Nature)

You're overcoat? It's twice as big as it appears, it's folded in half and buttoned near your collar and shoulders. When unfolded it's a 10x10 waterproof tarp with two detachable sleeves that can be used to hold water. A Collapsible hook makes a great buckle for a knotted rope belt. The white stone on your cheap ring is chalk, your necklace is a magnet on a rope, your walking stick has a stick inside it that can be pulled out and assembled into a 10ft pole. And so on. I am really the only guy that tries to Min/Max his gear? I'd use a Garrot wire as a hair tie just to choke some guards.

Force of Personality always struck me as so... annoyingly singular. It doesn't even affect all will saves. D<I know what you mean... but it could still be useful. For example, if SorO decides to turn on the rest of the party, it would help you against his Mind Thrust! :P

Bartok is a mercenary, he agrees to nothing without knowing the terms. :P
The fancy colored text is for easy differentiation of speech. Just pick whatever you feel is appropriate or whatever you want to look at. You have plenty of options.
But I can never decide. D:
I am going to find out why WotC made feats require odd ability scores, and I'm going to beat them to death with a wooden character sheet.
... also, did you have to make us post accepting this? D:
Of course. :P

Purple is not appropriate unless the character is royalty. :<

I've never really understood that correlation...
Then again my grandma loves purple and wears it all the time.
Can I give up the bonus to change the 11's to 10's and the 14 to a 15? Aasimar and hell are hardly compatible. :p

Rolled stats are rolled stats... It's hardly something i can make concessions on, and be considered fair. Not everyone chose to roll, many got weird stats, others chose point buy... Don't worry, the adventure will progress, and you can even those out at 4/8/12 etc... Also, due to the nature of magic items available on the setting, +Ability items will not be found in anything much higher than +1 or +2... So by chance, you might found one such item for your character to use ;)
Don't obsess too much over the numbers on the character sheet, a +1 here or a -1 there won't change much of anything! Enjoy the ride!
Based on her previous post, I think it's in order to qualify for a feat with a 15 stat prereq. It would be quite a long wait to have to put it off to level 6.
Can my character have been a part of the Order of the Sacred Scriptures? I was thinking for his backstory, he was working for the Church in some capacity, and discovered that by reciting some Pagan rituals he could duplicate their magic. This lead him to a crisis of faith because it implied that either God grants magic to the pagans as well as to His faithful, or else that the pagan gods are somehow valid candidates for worship. He went to his superiors to talk to them about it in the hopes that they could alleviate his worries. Instead, they declared him a Heretic and had him burned at the stake.
In Hell, he remembers seeing something (the details are unclear) that made him absolutely sure that he was right - there are other sources of divine power out there.
I'm fine with Raineh's stat change even if she is a bit too concerned about how much colors cost thousands of years ago. :P

In return you'll have to be patient with me, it has been a really long time since I've played a Low-Int Low-Wis character and I'm still figuring out how to roleplay that. I've decided that ignoring things Bartok doesn't understand is going to be a part of that.I got your back with a clarification there.

That is the worst attempt at intimidation (the writing, not the roll) I have ever seen. :eh
I have no clue why the hell it uses CHA and is opposed by level + wisdom. What.
I want to intimidate SirP's character just to see what will happen. :smirkIt's like aiming at a barrel with a shotgun, only to find the fish have already committed suicide.

Debating whether to have Eos freak out about the intimidates being thrown around...
alright, fuckit.

Both you and Brujon posted while I was writing, I had to edit multiple times.
zook, as far as I'm aware we don't have anything yet so you can't be strapping on armor.
brujon, how high op can we go here? Like, can I spend 287 for a sickstone lantern?
find in page "sickstone" (http://www.realmshelps.net/faerun/underdark/chap7under.shtml)brujon, how high op can we go here? Like, can I spend 287 for a sickstone lantern?
Is that better or worse than Aboleth Mucus? Because we're not allowed that stuff. :lmao
Wow, you people have been busy while I was working... I wanna play too! :DYour trait.
EDIT: Seeing how this is playing out, I'm thinking that a party healing wand doesn't really make sense IC, nice as it might be to have. Concur? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5j1wWY-qus)
EDIT2: Aarghh! Lists are freakin annoying! I don't know where that {/list} is actually supposed to go.

The Rhinoceros isn't actually in the room...
Also, the equipment isn't appearing magically in your person... It'll come next. I'll just interpret the actions differently, haha, should've been more clear.
Brujon, I edited my post. Is that kind of what you were looking for? Also, what are your thoughts on the party wand of healing? (Sorry to keep harping on this. :-\ )

Sounds good. A little healing doesn't hurt anybody. And yes.
I'll post the reaction and description later today. It's Father's Day! And i'm a new father, so i'm all up in all sorts of celebrations and all lol.
Can I describe myself as middle-aged, without taking the Middle Age stat modifiers?
Since it seems to have been missed earlierCan I describe myself as middle-aged, without taking the Middle Age stat modifiers?
If you have Int over 16 you already know Latin and know what the symbols and drawings are, they are Roman in nature, and depict Roman Legions fighting and conquering several different armies, at the height of the Holy Roman Empire, as well as some Greek drawings, showing Hoplites and Spartans

The Holy Roman Empire has absolutely no link to the actual Roman Empire, being Medieval and German. 'Hoplites and Spartans' would be indistinguishable, because the former is just a type of soldier. About all that could tell them apart is what's on the shield. But yeah, the HRE and the Roman Empire are from completely different eras. :lmao
... anyway, what do we do now?
(I'm confused, what exactly went on with Brighid and Dolus? )My real life doublespeak check failed and Raineh had Brighid join Dolus when he was trying to bed her.
Note ~ All Cardinal numbers are semi-made up.
From the 13th to 15th centuries there was only 30 at a given moment. The number was reduced to 20, then intended 15 but was overruled by the next Pope. By 1555 forty were allowed and since then it has increased to 120 voting members, the exact cardinal count is roughly around 180 today (120 with voting rights). Pre13th century MASSIVELY varies, which was the reason Pope John XXII standardized it in 1316. For instance 1099 had 18 cardinals but by 1118 there was over 40. 1294 had probably the single greatest change over, around twenty new cardinals created within eight months.
I'm using the current number. Both because it sounds impressive and because the game takes place in the 1000s. 1095 saw the first crusade, which undoubtedly swelled the number of promoted members, the Papacy that lead to this came into power in 1054.
Had a heart attack from the shock of going from dead to Italy to England?

Some encounters will be tough, really, really tough, because Party CR+2 is a pretty big CR when talking about a party of 7.
It's your game, do whatever feels right to you.^ What he said.
Why would you WANT to join toothbrushes? D:
Yea sorry for the delay. I should be ready soon. Probably by Monday at the latest
@dna1: That is a pretty frickin' cool picture.
I came here to comment on how awesome that is, and see I was not alone. :D@dna1: That is a pretty frickin' cool picture.
Why thank you sir! I have a rather extensive library of cool art I've collected over the years. About 4k+ pictures.

Online??
Hmm we might have to do a quest, but sure =]
K, it's all approved, i just want to understand some things about the equipment.That section typically is a note to the DM letting them know what the PC would like to loot/buy during the campaign at some future time. :)
I see you have all the mundanes listed with their prices and weights and stuff, but under the Equipment Wish List spoiler is where you have listed everything magical. Are those things you want your character to have now and are buying with the 1000gp or are things you want to eventually have, either bought, looted or otherwise obtained during the campaign? This confused me a bit...
K, at this point i officially declare the game as started again.:backtotopic
Going to update the story thread, is everyone with me?
Should I say yeah or can we just assume I'd love for the game to continue on every chance we get? :p
...All of us will be within charge distance?
